Apparently you've never seen www.nunames.nu? It made quite a lot of news when it came out. This has been going on for quite a while, it's odd that you should bring it up now. You might also want to check out http://www.nic.cc. I'm sure a host of others will be springing up in no time. BTW I happen to think those .to forwarder domains are ultra cool, I found http://easy.to/remember the other day and I thought it was an exteremely good idea... --Adam adam@flounder.net adam@mckenna.to??

By "legit" do you mean its purpose is to operate a business or other entity organized within the Kingdom of Tonga? -- -Barry Shein Software Tool & Die | bzs@world.std.com | http://www.world.com Purveyors to the Trade | Voice: 617-739-0202 | Login: 617-739-WRLD The World | Public Access Internet | Since 1989 *oo*
